The Great British Sewing Bee inspired viewers to be creative

SIR – Benji Wilson admits that he is not the target audience for The Great British Sewing Bee. But he calls it “hideously twee” and bemoans the fact that, in his opinion, it was not a patch on The Great British Bake Off.

I would like to assure him that, as a sewer, I found it refreshing, creative and took encouragement that I, too, could make something that would be treasured.
